Chapter 3 Marry me

• In the middle of the night, Valerie heard a voice calling her name.
• When she opened her eyes, all she saw were the wind-blown curtains.
• He dubbed her "my wife."
• Because the voice was getting closer and even more ominous, Valerie closed her eyes because she didn't want to look at it.
• She shut her eyes and placed a pillow over her ears.
• however, she felt a finger abruptly touch her wrist.
• The finger felt so frigid.
• Then Valerie rose because she was inquisitive and began to scan the area.
• She questioned, "Whose voice is that?"
• There was no response, all that could be heard was the sound of the wind entering the room through the open window.
• However, Valerie was aware of any observers in the room.
• "So who are you? Get out of here! "She yelled.
• Who would have guessed if a black shadow was emerging from behind the girl's chamber curtains as they shook in the wind?
• a shadow that revealed more and more of its face.
• When Valerie spotted a man dressed similarly to the royal individual at the museum,
• A tall, blue-eyed man with a pointed nose and light white skin, who exudes the calming scent of roses
• Valerie inquired inquisitively, "Who are you," but as she noticed the form of the man in the royal garb coming, she felt dread.
• "Valerie... Do you realize how long I've been waiting for you? I've been feeling very lonely "He spoke
• Valerie stepped aside, but she landed on the bed instead.
• However, he came up quickly and was standing on top of her body.
• "My bride," he said joyfully.
• When Valerie realized the man was standing on top of her, she glared in shock.
• She screamed fiercely, "Hey, what are you doing, get down right away."
• The appealing man chuckled before rising and bending his body.
• "My bride, welcome to the realm of Xavier," he grinned.
• she is still unable to comprehend what she is experiencing, Valerie tries to pinch the flesh of her palms to convince herself that it is all a dream.
• But regrettably, she is not dreaming, everything is as it appears.
• " I don't know you, how am I supposed to be your bride? Don't say anything ridiculous, or I won't believe it "She stated
• King Xavier burst into laughter as he admired his future wife's stunning smile.
• He questioned, "You want to know what happened?"
• Valerie scowled as she deliberated, she was curious as to how this man came to visit her room nearly every night.
• Valerie decided to learn the truth rather than let the man upset her any longer.
• King Xavier sat down next to Valerie, extending his arms and grinning.
• He said, "hold my hand, and I'll take you on a voyage."
• Then Valerie got to her feet and cautiously but eagerly made her way over. Her hands shook with fear as she attempted to shake the man's hand.
• Valerie appeared to soar somewhere when King Xavier was holding her, but the place was pitch-black and disorienting.
• up till they came to a cave where many individuals were camped out in period garb from 1600 years ago.
• Valerie's eyes fixed on a grown man raising his hands in the ceremony, while a group leader stood next to him attempting to slash his palms.
• The adult male committed.
• "I swear to the evil monarch of the kingdom Xavier... to deliver 400 female descendants of the Dimitri family to be your wife and donate their blood for you to enjoy so that you remain victorious" Aurelio Dimitri yelled,
• The trees were swaying at that moment due to a very powerful wind gust, and shortly after that, King Xavier emerged from the shadows.
• The moment Valerie turned to look at the man holding her hand, their expressions were identical.
• He enquired, "What do you want?"
• The man yelled the name of king Xavier once more before kneeling briefly and standing back up.
• He pleaded for prosperity, saying, "Give us plenty till the child feels the wealth and I swear to sacrifice the 400th female offspring for you."
• "Only those whose blood contains sacred pearls that I can appreciate are accepted as queen of me, "he stated.
• The Dimitri family appears to have the lineage of precious stones, according to King Xavier, who closed his eyes and examined the Dimitri family's genealogy.
• He answered, "Okay, I agree. I will fulfill my pledge in 400 years."
• The man nodded, then struck a deal by slicing his palm and supplying King Xavier with the blood as payment.
• When Valerie noticed it, she was becoming perplexed and unsure of what was happening.
• King Xavier turned his attention to the lovely girl.
• "Your great-grandfather has proposed to me, and now it's time for me to obtain you, that's their arrangement so that they will succeed till the end," he said
• How could she marry someone who was so old and who couldn't possibly be a human but a demon, Valerie scowled in disbelief?
• Valerie stepped aside, but King Xavier quickly grasped her wrist and grinned.
• He declared, "You are my wife, and you always will be."
• "I don't want to," Valeri loud out of terror.
• Upon observing Valerie's fear, King Xavier simply laughed. He then drew nearer, rubbed Valerie's cheek, and whispered something.
• "You won't be able to flee from me because even if you pass away, I will be able to marry your spirit because our wedding is only two days away" he warned.
• Valeri closed her eyes in terror and swallowed her saliva.
• Although she wanted to flee, it appeared as though something was holding her back.
